Supp people? Yeah I fail at being ghetto XP. Oh well, anyway I don't really know what to fill this spot with so I figured I should entertain you all with a story! So, how many of you remember the fan that I met at anime Boston? I talked about her and her Iceland cosplayer a while ago. Anyway, it just so happens that her Denmark cosplayer used to live with my new next door neighbors! So now she visits there all the time and hopefully I'll be able to hang out with them a lot more now yaayz :) small world XD.
So about this chapter…I think it's about time that Iceland and Norway finally sat down and talked about their problems. Sooo without further or do here's the moment we've all been waiting for…chapter 36 "confessions"!
Norway's pov
"What do you think it could be?" I asked Denmark nervously. "Norge, it could be anything, just relax I'm sure everything will be fine" he assured me as he pulled the car into Iceland's driveway. "Yeah but I don't think he would make this big of a deal about something if it could be solved so easily" I answered skeptically.
He sighed and pulled the keys out of the ignition. "Nor, I'm sure that whatever it is, it will resolve itself ok? Just relax, hold my hand if you want and smile. Don't come on to strong and I'm sure he'll explain everything" he responded
"You don't have to hold my hand; I'm not a baby you know." I mumbled, annoyed. "Oh yeah that remind me!" Denmark suddenly burst out. I opened my door and stepped out onto the wet pavement. It had been raining for the last hour or so and was finally letting up. I watched as Denmark hoped out of the driver's side and open the back door to rescue Soren from the back seat.
I waited for him to come around the other side of the car to start heading towards the front door. From behind me I heard Soren mumble cutely and giggle a little. I smiled wishing that I too had no cares in the world. I reached the door at the top of the concrete steps and hesitantly rang the doorbell.
We waited there in silence for less than a minute before Hong Kong opened the door for us. He wore a slight smile as he ushered us in making sure to greet us both with a pleasant 'welcome'. I wasn't exactly sure how I felt about Hong Kong living with Iceland, I mean he is my younger brother after all.
Though I suppose I trust Hong Kong and I know he's quite a gentleman, but still. Then again he never did tell me what was really going on with Iceland. Though they are best friends and I would feel guilty about telling him that he couldn't spend time with ice anymore.
Just then Iceland emerged from the hallway holding a little brown box in his hands. I saw Hong Kong intently react and jump off the couch to retrieve the box from him as if it were a bomb about to explode and he was the only one that could defuse it.
Iceland sighed and mumbled "I wasn't going to do anything" to Hong Kong. Hong Kong said nothing in return, only looked away looking slightly apologetic. The he took his former seat on the couch making room for Iceland to sit next to him.
Denmark and I sat on the couch across from them resting Soren's carrier on the floor next to the coffee table. We waited there in silence for a while before Hong Kong gave Iceland an encouraging nod. As if on cue Iceland took a big breath and started talking.
"So, I suppose you're both wondering what was going on with me for that past six months" he started, deadpanned just like me. I just nodded feeling as if I were to say something; it would be out of place. Iceland sighed again only this time I detected more distress in his tone.
"I'm not really sure how to say this so please bear with me" he stated looked down at his folded hands. "I was….depressed. I mean if depressed is the right word for it" he said sounding unsure of his words. "I didn't want to tell anyone but Hong Kong found out anyway. I don't think I'm completely over it yet but I'm definitely better" he explained.
Hong Kong nodded in agreement before turning slightly towards Iceland and muttered "might as well get it over with ice, you don't have to say it just show them." It was said so quietly that I almost didn't hear it. I watched as Iceland slowly removed his white gloves and placed a trembling bare hand on the chocolate brown sleeve of his jacket.
It can't be. There was a little voice in the back of head telling me that this was why he his himself away for so long, but I never wanted to believe it. I just couldn't believe it. It hurt too much to even think that my own brother would hate himself so much that he would do such a thing to himself. I wanted to turn away but my body turned to stone.
I saw the tears fill up in Iceland's eyes just as they had in mine moments ago as he rolled up his sleeve, revealing my biggest fear. Denmark gasped from beside me and flinched away a little at the sight of the small scars leading all the way up his pale arms. Some of them still had dried blood on them. I wanted to throw up. Not because of the blood, but because of the gruesome thoughts of him curled up in a corner slashing his wrists open for whatever reason.
Tears spilled over my eyelids and a weak sob escaped my dry, cracked lips. Iceland was crying silently too across from us. His head was slightly bowed in shame. He withdrew his arms and rolled the sleeves back down as soon as possible. I didn't think I could take much more but before I knew it I was crying harder at the sight of the contents of the little brown box.
It was slashed and the beautiful scene that was once on the cover of the box was gone. I couldn't look anymore, it was too much. Knowing that the child you raised had done such a horrid thing. I placed the box in my lap not put my hands over my eyes not wanting to see anymore. I felt the box lifted off of me in seconds and only moments later, a strong arm was around my waist pulling me into a comforting hug.
Suddenly Denmark spoke. "Where did you do this" he asked completely serious. He sounded a little angry actually, but I didn't blame him. "My room" Iceland responded quietly. "Let me see" Denmark insisted instantly. I rubbed my eyes and removed my hands in time to see Iceland's small nod as he rose off the couch.
Denmark stood too as well as Hong Kong. I followed their example, making sure the grab Soren's carrier before leaving the living room. We all followed Hong Kong down the hall to Iceland's room. Iceland, of course, opened the door timidly and flipped on the light which flickered to a focus. I didn't see the room seeing how I was last and apparently Denmark didn't want me to ever see it.
At the first glimpse of the room, he spun around and placed his hands on my shoulders. "Go back to the living room please" he mumbled softly in my ear. "w-what?" I asked taken slightly aback. "You don't need to see this Norge. Just please go back" he pleaded. I was too stubborn to listen though and he knew it. That's why when I pushed past him he didn't bother to stop me.
I saw what he had seen and gasped. My hands automatically found their way to my mouth to cover my sobs. Even Hong Kong looked away from the sight of the room. Denmark's arms were around me once again. "Why does it smell like bleach?" Denmark asked randomly, though what he stated was correct. The room reeked of chemicals.
"We had to get the blood stains out" Iceland replied quietly. I buried my face into Denmark's chest and balled his shirt up in my fists. Soren started crying in his carrier, signaling that it was time for us to leave.
888888
Denmark put Soren in the car and started the engine while I tried my best to soothe my red eyes in the bathroom. I was just about to leave when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see that it was Iceland. He looked ashamed. Then he spoke, two simple words that meant the world to me.
"I'm sorry"
"I know" I mumbled in response before wrapping my arms around him in a tearful hug.
Iceland's pov
It was now seven o'clock and Denmark and Norway were long gone. Soren was definitely cute and he looked just like my brother I remembered with a smile. Hong Kong and I had just finished dinner and I was on my way to bed.
"Iceland" Hong Kong said causing me to stop and turn to face him. "Why don't you sleep in my room tonight? I don't think you want to be in there right now" he stated gesturing with his eyes to my room. I nodded and followed him.
"I'll sleep on the couch so you can have the bed ok?" he said standing in the doorway. I nodded and thanked him quietly. I timidly walked in the room expecting Hong Kong to leave, but surprisingly he didn't.
"You know, you never told me why" he stated blankly. "Huh?"I muttered in confusion. "You never told me why you did it." He replied. I sighed and looked at my feet. "….I did it because…..nobody loves me, well not like family love or friend love but real love" I confessed quietly.
I didn't look up for a long moment but when I finally did, I was surprised at Hong Kong's expression. He was smiling. It wasn't a happy smile but it wasn't evil. It seemed somehow angry. Or maybe it was more annoyed. I didn't understand it.
I wanted to say something but no words came to me. Then Hong Kong spoke. "You idiot" he whispered. "Hu-"I began to say but I was cut off by his quick actions. Hong Kong pinned me up against the bedroom wall by my wrists. In seconds his lips were on mine.
My eyes bulged with bewilderment for a moment before something strange happened. Suddenly my stomach started doing flips and my legs got all wobbly. I felt dizzy and hot all over. Than something even more bizarre happened; I kissed back.
